SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The focus of this thesis is to build an interactive and robust GIS (Geographic Information systems) Tool which will give a geographical survey on the Historic and Modern Islam. The user can learn about how Islam began and expanded in the various parts of the world over the years, the timeline of major events in a chronological order, the major terrorist attacks in the world and some noteworthy terms and rituals of the Islamic culture, by just clicking on the map. The user can click on any highlighted country on the map to view more detailed information. The information is also provided in a form of timeline, where we can slide through to find out the events that happened in a particular year, over a period of time. It will give information about the exact year of the event, history behind the event and so on.
